A Little ,0^ This And That

If I’m not mistaken Monday’s snow was one more than Sam Stickle predicted a couple of weeks ago. Shame on you, Sam. I don’t think you are a much better weather prophet than I am. Oh, well, you win a few and lose a few. 000 DePauw University has mailed out invitations to attend the 138th annual Commencement weekend beginning Thursday, May 16th. Alumni Day will be held Friday, May 17th. Commencement exercises are set for 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, May 18th, on the East College Campus weather permitting I am hoping to see some of my old DePauw friends, especially on Alumni Day. 000 Paul Jenner informs me that he has moved his upholstery business to the basement of the Keith Lyon Building on the west side of the public square. This should prove a good

move for Paul as it will give him more room in which to work. 000 DID YOU KNOW: The expression “two bits” for the American quarter comes from the division of the SpanishAmerican peso into eight reals, or pieces of eight, bitten by traders testing their authenticity. 000 Anglo-Saxon King Alfred built the first English warships at Portsmouth, home port of the British Navy in 897. A contemporary chronicler wrote that the 60-oared galleys “were of peculiar build, higher, swifter and steadier than those of the Dane or the Frisians.” 000 Silver dollars long have been popular in the American west. Nickels remain the most favored coins in Baltimore, while quarter dollars are most sought after in the state of New York. 000 “Quite often the bigger the shot the smaller the caliber.”

Take a second look at that ‘loving friend’ By Abigail Van Buren ( 1174 Ay Ckkay* Tribgiw-N. Y. News SyM., lac. DEAR ABBY: As my husband and I were preparing to make a trip to Europe by air, one of my so-called dearest friends came to me and asked me if I would please get a $50,000 airplane insurance policy naming her as the beneficiary. She said she would gladly pay for the insurance! I was shocked to say the least. What do you think of such a suggestion from a supposedly loving friend? I’d really like your opinion. PEACHES DEAR PEACHES: Let me put it this way: If this “loving friend’’ invited me to her home for dinner. I’d wonder who she was loving, and I’d also take a food-taster along.

A few years after World War II Senator Joseph McCarthy wrote a book, "America’s Retreat from Victory.” In it he detailed how the United States of America, standing with military and economic supremacy at the end of that war, turned over the military and political victory we had won to the Communist slave masters of Europe and China. Henoted that we had done this by international agreements made largely in secret by our President and our State Department in meetings which took place on foreign soil with Communist leaders at Yalta and Teheran. Public reaction was favorable to Senator McCarthy until he began to investigate and then to name officials, high in our government, who had made treasonous and traitorous concessions to the Communists. Then all Hell broke loose. With frightening unanimity the President of the United States, many highly placed Senators and Congressmen and the news media turned their vituperative guns on Senator Joseph McCarthy and drove him to his death. We should learn a lesson from this. The Insiders who control the President, many members of Congress and the major news media like for us to be anti-com-munistic. But, they do not tolerate exposure of themselves nor of their minions in government who labor constantly to change the soverign independent United States governed by its citizens into an interdependent section of Earth governed by these same Insiders. Experience now shows

that these Insiders now control more than 409£ of the World’s people through totalitarian (Communist) governments where the people do not have the rights of free speech, religious freedom and trial by jury. Now we are retreating still further. Any person over 40 can tell just by looking out the window that the soot and smog of the 1930’s and I940’s has changed to clean air. This was accomplished way before the Political Ecologists, again minions of the Insiders, began to cry for laws controlling the production of coal, oil, gas and fertilizer. So-called “consumer protection laws’’ enacted by Senators and Representatives have crippled these vital industries as well as the railroads which bring their products to the manufacturer and the finished product to the customer. It seems to me that the freedom to produce goods the people need is the most natural consumer protection a person could desire. Before Christmas Nixon wanted Congress to grant him power to control all domestic energy. Congress wisely refused and went home to the people.* Now our President confers with “World Leaders,” many of whom are Communist tyrants, to regulate World production of oil. Now is the time for men who would not be slaves to tell their Representatives and Senators that they want the laws which caused the shortages of coal, oil and gas in the United States to be repealed. For he who does not know which laws are responsible, 1 recommend the purchase of a copy of Dan Smoot’s “The Business End of Government,” at any American Opinion Bookstore. Look in your telephone directory. Quicker than that, and upon good advice of George Washington, write and tell President Nixon to stay home, call Kissinger back and quit building the entangling political and economic alliances which will but assure that the United States becomes poor enough to be “comfortably” merged with the rest of the World under a Communist government.
